Busulfan → Butyl methanesulfonate

A mixture of 1.00 g (2.18 mmol) of 5-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)-7-(dimethylamino)tetrahydrobenzo-thiepine-1,1-dioxide (obtained from Example 1402, Step 10), 2.68 g (10.88 mmol) of busulfan, and 1.50 g (10.88 mmol) of potassium carbonate in 20 mL of acetone was stirred at reflux overnight. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the crude was dissolved in 30 mL of ethyl acetate. The insoluble solid was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The resulting white foam was chromatographed through silica gel column, and eluted with 30% ethyl acetate/hexane to give 1.02 g (77%) of butyl mesylate intermediate as a white solid: 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 0.90 (m, 6H), 1.20-1.67 (m, 12H), 1.98 (m, 4H), 2.22 (m, 1H), 2.83 (s, 6H), 3.04 (s, 3H), 3.08 (ABq, 2H), 4.05 (t, J=5.55 Hz, 2H), 4.11 (d, J=6.90 Hz, 1H), 4.35 (t, J=6.0 Hz, 2H), 5.49 (s, 1H), 6.00 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 6.52 (dd, J=9.0 Hz, 2.7 Hz, 1H), 6.93 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 2H), 7.42 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.90 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1H).
